Re: The one and only Bob
Like a bod I knew. Les Vaughn...While Benching 400x1 rep one day I asked what his diet consisted of he said "Guiness and chips mate"Originally posted by Dave Burgess View PostProper physical culturists in them days Bob, like you say, we dint need shite like steroids, just good grub and good beer!
Steroids was unheard of. It was an American thing.
Even Swartzenegger was'nt on them when he won the NABBA U in 65 was it, but after he went to California suddenly morphed into a fookin' huge monster.
Remember him Dave ? Frank Zane.
He was one of the few Yanks that would not touch them....but by and large they were all at it or they fell by the wayside.
Look at that beast Dorian Yates from Brum. Big big guy.Last edited by trubrit2411; 27 September 2014, 14:50."If they control your speech.....they control your life"

Re: The one and only Bob
Shame innit Tone,that drugs have f.cked up most sports these days. Ya can,t even tek the Olympics seriously anymore, I call it, "The Steroid Games", cos the most important part of the training regime is to mek sure that you,ve gorra shit hot chemist to try and mek sure that you don,t get caught. When I wuz running the gyms, there wuz one knobhead "juicer" I knew who told me that the masking chemical they take to help beat the drugs test is derived from female piss! Now don,t get me wrong, I aint against female piss, as long as it comes from a popular party game called "The Golden Shower!"
I,ve still got me NABBA membership badge from 1960, along with the medal from the first comp I entered in 1961, Junior Mr.Yorkshire where I came 2nd age 14. It was at that show that I got the chance to lift the famous "Inch Dumbell", big f.ck off thick 4 inch diameter bar, weighing about 120lbs. Happy Days!022.jpg
